Live — systems running for clients across 10 industries

Systems that do the work nobody should be doing.

AI and automation that takes the repetitive work off your team — missed calls, admin, lead follow-up, document processing, reporting. Built once, runs quietly in the background. No hype, no theatre.

Four patterns I build most.

Same underlying approach across all four. Every project is custom-scoped to your business, fixed-price, built only when the maths works.

Lead intake & response

Never miss a lead again

Capture every enquiry — website forms, email, platform listings, social DMs — classify it with AI, push it into your CRM, and respond within minutes. No leads sitting in inboxes for days, no copy-paste between platforms.

  • Pulls leads from every source into one view
  • AI extracts name, contact details, and enquiry reason
  • Auto-responds in your tone within 5 minutes
  • Logs straight into Pipedrive, HubSpot, Zoho, GHL or a sheet

AI voice agents

Answer every call, day or night

A voice agent that picks up when you can't. Captures the enquiry, books the appointment, answers the FAQs, sends you the details before the call's even ended.

  • Handles missed calls that would otherwise become lost revenue
  • Books appointments straight into your calendar
  • Qualifies leads before they reach you
  • Sounds human, runs 24/7, never calls in sick

Outbound & CRM automation

Outbound and pipeline, automated

Cold email sequences with AI-personalised copy and enrichment. CRM stage-triggered follow-ups that move deals forward. Reply classification, lead scoring, handoffs — all running in the background.

  • Cold email outreach with enrichment (Apollo, Lusha, Companies House)
  • CRM stage-triggered email + SMS sequences (Pipedrive, GHL, Zoho, HubSpot)
  • AI reply classification — positive, OOO, bounce, unsubscribe
  • Lead scoring, pipeline hygiene, reporting

Data & back-office automation

The back-office, automated

Handwritten forms and PDFs read by AI. E-commerce orders synced to accounting. Scheduled reminders, recurring reports, data pipelines — the admin that quietly eats hours every week, running in the background.

  • Handwriting + printed-text OCR with validation (lab cards, forms, invoices)
  • E-commerce → accounting sync (WooCommerce → QuickBooks, Stripe → Sheets)
  • Scheduled reminders and recurring campaigns (email + SMS)
  • Internal dashboards and reports deployed to the web

Here's what a few of them look like.

Eight real systems I've built, drawn out end-to-end. Each one runs every day for a client. No screenshots, no pitch deck — just the actual flow.

Voice · Estate agency

Voice agent — call handling

How a real inbound call plays out for a client I've built for. The caller never reaches voicemail.

  1. Caller rings in
    Day, night, weekend
  2. Agent greets & qualifies
    Sounds human
  3. Captures enquiry
    Name, job, address
  4. Books the appointment
    Straight into calendar
  5. Call ends
    Under 2 minutes

Voice · Estate agency

Voice agent — post-call automations

What happens the second the call ends. The client knows about the job before the caller's hung their coat up.

  1. Transcript generated
    Every word logged
  2. AI summarises & tags
    Urgent / quote / info
  3. CRM record created
    Pipedrive / GHL
  4. Emails sent
    To you + the caller
  5. Follow-up scheduled
    Nothing falls through

Outbound · Marketing agency

B2B email sequencing — marketing agency

Cold leads from scraping and enrichment, through personalised drip, into a warm handoff. Runs 24/7, stops the second someone replies.

  1. Lead captured
    Form, import, scrape
  2. Auto-enriched
    Company, role, LinkedIn
  3. Personalised drip
    3–5 emails, 2 weeks
  4. Reply classified
    Interested / not / OOO
  5. Handoff to you
    Warm, with context

OCR · Dental lab

Dental lab — photo to job card

Staff snap a photo of a handwritten order. The system reads it, validates it against the rulebook, and creates the job in their management tool. No manual typing, no mis-keyed jobs.

  1. Photo via WhatsApp
    Or uploaded to a form
  2. AI extracts every field
    Handwriting handled
  3. Validated against rules
    Flags anything unclear
  4. Job created
    WorkflowMax / jobmgmt

Back-office · E-commerce

E-commerce → accounting sync

Orders flow from the store straight into the books. No CSV exports, no month-end catch-up, no guesswork on tax.

  1. WooCommerce order
    Trigger fires instantly
  2. Customer synced
    Or created if new
  3. Invoice generated
    Line items & discounts
  4. Tax calculated
    Region-aware
  5. Logged in QuickBooks
    Reconciliation-ready

Back-office · Industrial inspections

Inspection reminders — NDT inspection company

Annual certification inspections expire on a schedule. The system catches them weeks out, books the next visit, and keeps customers compliant without anyone chasing.

  1. Inspection logged
    With expiry date
  2. Auto-fires weeks out
    Before it expires
  3. Reminder email sent
    Via Klaviyo
  4. SMS if no open
    Escalation path
  5. Booked & logged
    Back into the cycle

Lead intake · Private clinic

Clinic enquiry intake

New enquiries stop sitting in an inbox for days. The system triages, responds, and lines the lead up for the clinic to book — automatically, within minutes.

  1. Website form submitted
    Captures full detail
  2. Enriched & qualified
    Fit scored
  3. AI drafts reply
    In clinic's tone
  4. Response sent
    Within 5 minutes
  5. Ready for booking
    Full context attached

Data & reporting · Coaching

Customer health scoring — SaaS advisory

Every client has a rolling health score — usage, engagement, onboarding progress. When a client drops into the red, the system flags them before they churn.

  1. Data pulled nightly
    Sheets / GHL / Stripe
  2. Score model runs
    Weighted signals
  3. Dashboard updated
    Client list, colour-coded
  4. Red-score alert
    Before they churn

Louie Edge

A bit about me

I'm Louie.

I build AI and automation systems from Brighton, UK — working with clients across 10 different industries. No team, no agency overhead. Just me, shipping every project personally. I take the time to understand your business, I don't outsource any of the work, and I'll tell you honestly when automation isn't worth it. Direct relationships, from the first call to the handover.

How it works.

No drawn-out sales process. No retainer lock-ins. Just a call, a proposal, and a working system.

  1. 01

    Discovery call

    30 minutes. You tell me what's eating your team's time or what calls you're missing. I tell you what's actually solvable.

  2. 02

    Scoped proposal

    Fixed price. Clear deliverables. No open-ended hourly. You approve it before anything gets built.

  3. 03

    Build & handover

    I build it, you test it, I hand it over with full documentation and a Loom walkthrough. Questions after? Still answered.

Questions worth asking.

How do you decide what's worth automating?
Every project starts with a simple question: how much time or money does this cost you every month, and does the build pay back within a few months? If it doesn't, I'll tell you on the discovery call and we move on. Good automations have obvious ROI — missed calls captured, hours of manual admin removed, leads stopped from slipping through the cracks. Shiny AI features with no clear return aren't worth building, however impressive they look in a demo.
What kind of work does this actually replace?
Anything that's repetitive, rules-based, and quietly eats hours every week. Inbound lead triage. Copy-pasting data between tools. Chasing missed calls. Reading handwritten forms and typing them into a system. Sending follow-up emails. Pulling reports from five places into one dashboard. If a task follows the same pattern each time — even if it involves some judgment — AI makes it automatable. What isn't worth automating: work that genuinely needs human relationships, creativity, or nuanced decisions you couldn't write down.
Who owns the systems once they're built?
You do. Every project runs on your accounts — your n8n, your Make.com, your Retell, your API keys, your CRM. I'm just the person who wires them together. No lock-in, no hostage situations. If you ever wanted to stop working with me, everything keeps running. You get full documentation and a Loom walkthrough, so you could hand it to anyone else to maintain.
How much does it cost?
Projects are fixed-price, scoped on the discovery call — you know the exact number before anything is built. Typical builds range from £500 for simple automations to £3,000+ for multi-system projects. Voice agents and ongoing outbound systems are a setup fee plus monthly retainer. Either way, the rule is the same: if the system doesn't save or earn enough each month to justify the cost, I'll tell you upfront.
How long does a project take?
Most builds run 2–4 weeks from kick-off to handover. Larger multi-system projects run 4–8 weeks. You'll get a realistic timeline in the proposal — no optimistic promises. For voice agents specifically, the build itself is fast — the time-consuming part is testing. Getting a voice agent to sound right and handle edge cases takes iterating on real transcripts.
Do I need to be technical?
No. I handle the build, the handover, and the ongoing tweaks. Every project ends with a Loom walkthrough showing you exactly how to operate and monitor what you've got. If something needs changing in a month, you message me — you don't need to touch the underlying system.
What happens after I book the call?
30 minutes, no pitch. I ask about the process or calls you want to fix, what you've tried, and what 'solved' looks like. You leave with either a rough proposal pencilled in, or a straight answer that it's not worth automating. Either way, you learn something useful.

Got a process that's quietly costing you money?

30 minutes on a call. I'll tell you if it's worth automating or not — either way you leave with a clear answer.
